Description
Whaddon Hill Farmhouse is an 18th-century house constructed of red and blue brick, featuring a hipped old tile roof with chimneys located at the eaves level on the north side. It has a wooden eaves cornice and stands two storeys tall, with an inset wooden band at the first floor. The building has a U-shaped plan with wings to the north. The south elevation consists of four bays, with a half-glazed door in the second bay from the left, flanked by 19th-century tiled roofed canted bay windows. The upper casements are three-light leaded windows, while the ground floor to the right of the door and in the right bay are blank or blocked. The windows are adorned with flat gauged brick arches. The east and west elevations each have two bays with similar windows, some of which are blank or blocked. A wooden floor band continues around the north elevation, which features projecting one-bay wings and a recessed centre with a full-height semicircular bow that has a moulded brick cornice and a three-light leaded upper casement. There is a 'Sun' Insurance plate and a later slate roofed porch at the ground floor.
